Why I blog...

One of the deepest impulses in man is the impulse to record, - to scratch a drawing on a tusk or keep a diary, to collect sagas and heap cairns. This
instinct as to the enduring value of the past is, one might say, the very basis
of civilization.-- John Jay Chapman

About Me

Quotes...

“I can only note that the past is beautiful because one never realises an emotion at the time. It expands later, and thus we don't have complete emotions about the present, only about the past.” ---Virginia Woolf

“A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away.” ---Eudora Welty

Memory... is the diary that we all carry about with us. ---Oscar Wilde

Winter must be cold for those with no warm memories. ---Terry Mckay (Deborah Kerr - An Affair to Remember)

The great thing, if one can, is to stop regarding all the unpleasant things as interruptions of one's "own," or "real" life. The truth is of course that what one calls the interruptions are precisely one's real life -- the life God is sending one day by day. ~C.S Lewis
